This has been one of the foundations for the developing field called design computing. Recently, there has been a growing interest in what designers do when they design and how they use computational tools. This forms the basis of a newly emergent field called design cognition that draws partly on cognitive science. This new conference series aims to provide a bridge between the two fields of design computing and design cognition. The papers in this volume are from the First International Conference on Design Computing and Cognition (DCC'04) held at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA.
